      New Name, Same Insight, Expanded Teachings

       

      As of December 31, 2023, the Soul Lightening International (SLI) non-profit business structure was dissolved. The Soul Lightening Acupressure curriculum, originally developed by Dr. Aminah Raheem, will now be taught by the Insight Acupressure Faculty Alliance. This group of dedicated faculty offers the full curriculum and will continue to progress Dr. Raheem's work, with new exciting offerings coming in 2024.

      We are a diverse global community of healthcare professionals and practitioners, including Occupational, Physical and Massage Therapists, Reiki Masters, Yoga & QiGong Teachers, Acupuncturists, Nurses, and more. We are united by our shared dedication to promoting health, harmony, and wholeness through the practice of Insight Acupressure. 

      “We need to relearn the natural strategies and maneuvers that many grandmothers, ancestors, and village healers passed down through the generations to help their families and neighbors.” 
      Dr. Aminah Raheem, Originator of Soul Lightening Acupressure
